Just curious, why isn't there a filter for the manual transmissions?

The manual also says to change the differential fluid for the automatic transmissions. I am guessing this isn't done in the manual transmissions as well?
Because manual gear boxes are splash lubrication by the movement of the gears rather than by a pump, there is no filter. And a manual transmission is also the differential, unlike the Tip equipped cars.
